Furthermore, information about the presence of a disability will now be added to the registry of conscripts, military personnel, and reservists “with subsequent reflection of such information in the military registration document in electronic form.”
“It is permitted to submit a copy of the medical certificate for a child with a disability under the age of 18, certified by a social protection agency, healthcare institution, the Pension Fund of Ukraine, or notarized, instead of presenting the originals of the documents, as well as copies of other documents confirming the disability,” Melnychuk added.
Let us remind you that the day before yesterday it was reported that the Verkhovna Rada extended the deadline for passing the VVK for those with limited fitness until June 5. The next day, President Zelensky signed the law.
It was also reported that Ukraine intends to eliminate the requirement for individuals to visit the specific TCK where they are registered. The same applies to passing the VVK.
